Okay, so I was being a bit of a smartass there :) I really think that such cases are best left to a window manager that tries to 'do everything' -- dwm is perfect for one (or two, in my case) large monitor, and it handles it very well. I keep hoping to see dwm go into a 'steady state' where the only patches are to maintain compatibility with latest x.org, etc., but instead every time it seems 'done' we shoot forward into crazy-ass ideas like requiring an extra 0.5 MB of libraries for a 2k SLOC program, just so people's firefox titles look better. Instead of porting everything to pango, I suggest leaving it alone, and the affected users can turn the built-in bar off and use another status bar program. # Kurt H Maier
